hair and shoes

Important things to us girls! The ‘hair’ in the post title refers to my wedding hair-ups, which were done by my sister Katy. I’ve had the photos of this printed for ages, and have just scrapped them in answer to Shimelle’s challenge to scrapbook with black and white photos (see challenge here). Here’s the layout (click on the photo to see it larger):

I love these photos, because you can see the steam rising from the curlers in the pic on the left, and my sister is pulling a fab face in the pic top right – I don’t think I was being gentle enough putting the clip in her hair!

I had fun spritzing yellow card and roughing up the edge of the page, paint techniques and distressing are definitely my favourite scrap techniques at the moment! I also love these Thickers that I used for the title:

After I finished the page I checked what other photo challenges of Shimelle’s I wanted to complete, and I quickly got my daughter to put her favourite shoes on for the challenge to photograph some feet (see challenge here):

This picture will definitely end up on a scrapbook page, as these are the first shoes little one has learnt to put on by herself. And she’s very proud of it, every time she’s put them on she shouts ‘look, I did it myself!’ She puts them on every now and then just to walk around the house – looking pleased with herself! xxx
